"The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied
patch available.

  - Vim is an open source command line text editor. A floating point exception may occur when calculating the
    line offset for overlong lines and smooth scrolling is enabled and the cpo-settings include the 'n' flag.
    This may happen when a window border is present and when the wrapped line continues on the next physical
    line directly in the window border because the 'cpo' setting includes the 'n' flag. Only users with non-
    default settings are affected and the exception should only result in a crash. This issue has been
    addressed in commit `cb0b99f0` which has been included in release version 9.0.2107. Users are advised to
    upgrade. There are no known workarounds for this vulnerability. (CVE-2023-48232)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.");
